I sometimes like the name Gage, but I'm not a big fan of Gauge. It's actually a really strange word to turn into a name...Hunter is a word name too, but it makes more sense as it's a profession. I don't really like Hunter though. All the kids I've met named Hunter have been sort of violent types... I think people try to use this as a "macho name". I like Hunt as a nn for Hunter though. Don't know why.

(edit: apparently Gage / Gauge exists because of a profession name too. Never mind. It just sounds like less of one because it doesn't have an -er)
